Good Morning Everyone! First off, a big thank you to londonesque and elegant_vintage for the v-gifts! always makes me feel warm and flannel! I know I haven't updated as much as you might think after that last post, but I did finish the Complaint Free World book and am trying that 21-day challenge. I also finished Hush, Hush and A Night Without Armour by Jewel - I'm

I'm totally putting the Jewel book on my must read list. Poetry is such a beautiful thing but yeah I only can read it printed out on paper.

I'm with you - and since you're a fan, I'm sure you'll enjoy it!

[londonesque]

You're welcome :) I hope the complaint-free month is going well!

work got the better of me today...so I have to re-start again tomorrow, but I think I can make this to at least next week...I think I was cheating earlier this week...it's a process ;)

how are you?

[londonesque]

You've still been doing well.

I'm ok thanks :)

[pokecharm]

the important thing is I'm still trying :)

okay isn't bad, but just think orange thoughts and that might get you to better :)

Good luck to on your complaint free trial. Can't imagine how difficult that is (I'd fail at the first commute), but if you make you can do what a lot can't.

Since Jewel's music basically is poetry, I imagine the poetry is very good

Again let me say I'm so proud of you!! Positive thinking can change your life. I'm almost done reading a similar book, but with a Christian spin, Battlefield of the Mind. I am mostly a positive person, but realize I do complain about certain things. Guess I need more work!!

aw, thanks, hun! It is a struggle, I find myself falling off, but trying to get back up, and that's the key!

I love Jewel! I'll probably check out that book. =D

And I'm looking forward to starting my no-complaining challenge on Aug 30 when school starts! Right now I'm trying to prepare myself by being more optimistic about everything. And when I say everything, I mean EVERYTHING. I found out my English teacher will be the Wicked Witch of Doom, but I've decided to look at it more positively and help my fellow classmates have the same outlook.

Jewel is made of all kinds of awesome :)

It is a challenge, but the days I succeed, it feels good. I need to get back to that high I had! If you're positive, people around you will soak it up or repel it, but it'll have an effect!
